Fearing that this aspect of her life may be over forever, Kae finally gathers the courage to approach her husband, only to be rejected. Years of pent-up frustration come pouring out. In response, Hiroki makes a shocking suggestion:

“I love you, Kae, but… why don't you find fulfillment elsewhere? The loneliness, the intimacy—everything.”

With her husband's approval and in the name of preserving their marriage, Kae begins exploring relationships with other men, including a former boyfriend, people she meets through dating apps and clubs, and even professional companionship services. But what Kae truly wants is not merely physical satisfaction. More than anything, she longs to feel emotionally fulfilled and loved by someone she genuinely cares about.

As she searches for what is missing in her life, Kae must confront her desires, her marriage, and what happiness really means.
